    Tell me why averaging down is a bad idea .

    Probably 20 years ago or maybe even longer I studied variations of this type of strategy and applied them with real money to real time trading. Eventually I came "within inches" of going completely bust. There are much better ways to trade the markets, you don't need to rely on such a strategy.

    How to sell a profitable trading strategy?

    The more you say the less interest there will be. Back testing means nothing. Let's see some real trades with real money on the line with trades over a large trade sample size in several markets over different time frames. Until you accomplish this everything else is just talk.

    US To Announce End To Sanction Waivers For Iran Oil

    Price forecast of how high or how low a market price will be usually hurts the results of traders. The real question should be how long will this current move last? In Crude Oil's case from the forecast below mid July is how long this move will last.

    Any government online tax filing tools out there?

    All I can say is a few years ago I started having a professional take care of my taxes and it is no longer something I have to struggle with. It is such a relief, I highly recommend it.

    which 5G stock is about to get hot?

    A friend told me he has already bought Nokia and Qualcomm. Don't know if he makes money or not, but he said the purchase was based on the coming 5G future.

    An Occasional Forecast

    With Interest Rates being in the news today I thought maybe this would be a good time to post a 2019 Weekly forecast for the 30 Year Bonds. Since I only look for and trade the big moves in a forecast we're going to have to wait a while for the next big move in Bonds. Between July and October...

    How can this oil hedge fund giant lose so much when October was an easy short trade?

    How can this oil hedge fund giant lose so much when October was an easy short trade?

    I hardly consider myself to be an expert but there are data models out there that are capable of making such a forecast. The problem is very few are willing to make the sacrifice or work hard enough to develop such models. My 2018 Crude Weekly forecast:

    SUPER BET. 40 271 calls expire Monday for 2 cents lots of steamrollers.

    These type of opportunities abound in the markets. It is the only way I trade anymore. Spent 12 years designing one model to capture these types of moves. Here is an example of my Crude 2018 Weekly, more or less a perfect distribution, in other words there was going to be huge move in Crude in...

    AT&T vs. Verizon

    AT&T is the worse company in the country to do business with and their Customer Service is horrific. I base this on my personal experience and along with others I know. Big mistake to allow AT&T to buy out Time Warner.

    Tomorrow's Chart Today-Part 2

    It's been a good morning. The chart on the right is what can create the inversions in the Q Price Forecast Chart on the left. Once this is understood you pretty much know when turns are going to happen. Are they perfect, no nothing really is but many times they are exact. These are the charts I...
